Chords

Hey everyone, this is my first tab, but I'm pretty sure it's Legit. First think you need to do is tune your guitar a half step down.

So the guitar is D# G# C# F# A# D#
If you don't have a tuner you don't have to tune it down but it won't match the

song, it'll be a half step higher. (or sharp) This isn't the way Cody actually plays the song, but it is a moderation. I'm not sure of all the chord names because they are sus or 7 or somthing so I'll just put a chord chart.

     G             D/F#            Em7             C7              D
e|--3-----|    e|--3-----|    e|--3-----|    e|--3-----|    e|--2-----|
B|--3-----|    B|--3-----|    B|--3-----|    B|--3-----|    e|--3-----|
G|--------|    G|--2-----|    G|--------|    G|--------|    e|--2-----|
D|--------|    D|--------|    D|--2-----|    D|--2-----|    e|--------|
A|--2-----|    A|--------|    A|--2-----|    A|--3-----|    e|--------|
E|--3-----|    E|--2-----|    E|--------|    E|--------|    e|--------|

Those are the chords you play the whole time, just in a different order at points. I'm sure you notice there is a picking pattern at the beginning. it's like this... Each pattern is done 2 times

e|-------3--|    e|------3---|    e|------3---|    then you strum both

B|-------3--|    B|------3---|    B|------3---|    C7 and D
G|-------0--|    G|------2---|    G|---0--0---|    
D|---0---0--|    D|---0--0---|    D|----2-2---|    
A|-----2----|    A|----0-----|    A|--2-------|    
E|--3-------|    E|--2-------|    E|----------|

Alright now to where it all goes. (:

I keep telling myself that its what what it seems and I wish that wouldn't keep haunting my dreams I'll shoot out of bed and wake up in a sweat How could I forget? I imagined the worse when we were on the phone, As you sat there and told me that you were alone I could see him I know how me makes you behave That this wasnt the girl that I kissed on our date But I'll wait for you Even though you dont want me to because I'm not over you, I promise This word they call love come push or to shove I ment it and now I'm in tears Because I'm not over you, I promise You wont see this face show up at your place Although I'm in town I'll stay here, my love

    Em7
You broke me and took me along for the ride

          C7                          D
And this pain that you left me should make me subside but I'm

not over you, I promise This word they call love come push or to shove I ment it and now I'm in tears Because I'm not over you, I promise You wont see this face show up at your place Although I'm in town I'll stay here, my love Because I'm not over you, I promise This word they call love come push or to shove, I ment it and now I'm in tears, My love Any questions, feel free to shoot me an email [email protected]
